Good news for employees, up to Rs. 40,000 will be paid, the amount in the account will increase in September!
This time the interest is being paid by the government at the rate of 8.1%. However, this interest rate is the lowest in the last 40 years. Despite this, the employees have been waiting for the payment of PF for a long time. Meanwhile, EPFO has given big information. If the account holders want their entire interest amount in the account, then they have to take special care of some things. Otherwise, they may have to face loss in the amount of interest.
In fact, lakhs of employees working in the private sector change their jobs every few months. After joining a new job, employees open new PF accounts in the new company from their old UAN. In such a situation, the money of the new company comes in the account and the amount stops coming in the old PF account. In such a situation, the employees may have to bear the loss of interest amount due to not getting the account done.
In such a situation, EPFO has advised the employees to link all the accounts together. In doing so, interest can be paid on the amount collected in all the accounts. If the amount is more, the interest will also be higher.
PF account can be merged as soon as the UAN number is activated by the employees.
